I Owe Ya One

It's been a week or so I guess since I blogged so here I am!  Let's see..............

I had previously blogged about sitting in our kitchen as a child and crying over a broken elastic band.  For your viewing pleasure, here is a picture of that dining area.  Of course I was all smiles here as it was my birthday.  I was also sitting to the left (from your view) and not in the spot I am in here.  That is how VIVID that memory is.  

Last Sunday I had my weekly DP/Chat/Cruise with Becca.  We always have a good time whether approved of or not.  She is a true friend and has stayed true to me.  It's not easy and I am so thankful to have you in my life Becca!!!

This week, like all weeks, I have been super busy at work.  LOVE it.  Yes, I still do and I know I say it every time I blog but that's what I think of when I think of work.  It's nice for a change.  I had a dream last night I was still teaching in Oklahoma and let me tell you it was horrible.  I seriously woke up feeling like I had truly worked all night. 

I recently told my boss that I needed to buckle down and work on my study materials while here at home but my buckle was broken!  My mind is engaged ALL day long so it is hard to want to focus even more when I get home.  As I told him, I wouldn't have it any other way!  It is much better than looking up at 2:30 and thinking "is it time to go home yet?"

The weather was absolutely beautiful today.  I enjoyed it while I was out in it.  I do like that we still have some daylight when we get off of work.  Rusty and I both have spring fever so bad it is depressing!  I am thankful that I don't have ONE thing going this weekend.  I can stay home and if the weather is bad that makes it even easier!  Of course, I have my book to study (and YES I will) and I have my violin to practice. 

Mr. Keiko has gotten "ballsy" here lately.  Here is a pic Rusty took and titled it "Don't know if this is his first time." 

I don't know how he'd get back in if he actually went over but I'm hoping he would come to the front picture window!  That's where he was when I locked him out in the snow that one night!  I think Marley is kinda looking at him with that "WTH" pose.

And here he is with a drop of milk on his nose.  Yes, I drank milk and shared my last little bit with him. 

I have not been drinking much DP at work, just too busy to think about it.  You would think I would drink more being at a desk the whole time but I stay completely busy.  I only have half of one before lunch.  I am guessing that's why the weight loss has occurred.  Um, I'm not complaining!

I had the opportunity to have Chinese with my girls, Leigh and Jen, this last week.  Jen was in town on not so great circumstances but I am glad I got to see her!

Here's to Friday!
